Cool, so we agree on that.
Let’s go a step further.
Is watching a video of a guy being beheaded the same as beheading a guy?

I never said masturbating to women being raped was equivalent to raping a woman. I said they’re both bad and inexcusable actions that I, and many others, are perfectly capable of entirely avoiding.

Sure sure. Now add in a layer of deception. Let’s say PurePorn (fictional, as far as I know) has always been very good looking they sound like they pay well, are responsive to the needs and desires of all models, etc etc. From what you can tell, they’re completely ethical. The girls always seem to be enjoying themselves, it’s produced by a woman, whatever other green flags you wanna give it.
That’s about as ethical as you can be consuming porn, right?
Now, a few years go by, and some models come out about some truly gross stuff happening. The company gets sued, the women get recompense, yadda yadda.
From what you, as a consumer, could have possibly known, everything was fine. Now it’s not. You immediately stop watching their videos, report them any time you see them come up, inform fellow consumers, etc
Are you the monster here? Did you actually do anything wrong? Or were you deceived as well?

No, but I wouldn’t watch it in the first place as masturbating to someone being sexually abused is not an acceptable consequence of watching porn for me.

All that to justify watching porn. You already said “you take every reasonable step that you can” to make sure you are consuming ethical porn. So you should be done.
Why try so hard to defend people who, being aware that it could very well be made sexually abusing women, watch porn carelessly? Which I think is obvious the criticism was aimed to.
